Kazakh[edit]
Letter[edit]
ٴ • (◌̈)
- A diacritic used at the beginnings of words to mark all vowels throughout the word as front vowels. (It has no sound value on its own.)
Usage notes[edit]
- Not used in words containing ك, گ, or ە, as they also mark all vowels as front vowels.
- If a word contains a hamza (or ك, گ, and ە) but also contains ع or ق, vowels near ع or ق will remain back vowels but all other vowels in the word will be fronted.
